Farkas Gyula - family are asked to contact the police in Kamala.

PHUKET: Kamala police are appealing for information about an eldery Hungarian tourist who was found lost and disoriented in Kamala on Saturday night (January 11).

Kamala Police Volunteer Paul Edden said police were trying to find anyone who knows 73-year-old Farkas Gyula who, it is believed, may be suffering from Alzheimer’s.

Mr Edden said Mr Gyula was found in Kamala and was picked up by locals and taken to the police station. He is now staying at the Sunwing Resort in Kamala.

Mr Gyula is a Hungarian national but lives in Switzerland. He told police he was staying at the Swissotel, but the hotel had no record of him. Police have been telephoning hotels in the area, and are also trying to connect with the Hungarian Embassy in Bangkok.

“He said he came to Phuket with his wife on January 8. He’s got money, but no passport,” Mr Edden said.

“Maybe if someone knows him, they can get in touch with me. He’s very confused,” Mr Edden said.

Anyone who has information can call Mr Edden on 083 982 9105.
